the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-i</span></code> option.  Previously this was done to help build as much
of tested projects as possible.  However, this behavior is not
consistent with other generators and also causes the return code

<p>Of course users may still add this option manually by setting

<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OLD</span></code> behavior for this policy is to add <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-i</span></code> to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">make</span></code>
calls in CTest.  The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NEW</span></code> behavior for this policy is to not
add <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-i</span></code>.</p>
<p>This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.3.  Unlike most policies,
CMake version 3.16.5 does <em>not</em> warn when this policy is not set and
simply uses <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OLD</span></code> behavior.</p>
